Wheat cent hoard

[Hunter612]

My dad gave me a huge tin of wheat cents yesterday that he inherited when his mom passed away. There are thousands of wheats in it. I am going to go through them and make rolls of the same dates and look for errors, varieties, and rare dates. I will update this thread with a detailed list of everything in the tin. I have looked through a few handfuls and I have already found a 1909. I am hoping to complete a set of 1941-1958 wheat cents.

I think you will complete your goal multiple times over and partially complete the first half as well. Good luck and congratulations for your gift.

Sorry I haven't had a chance to update this sooner, but I have been pretty busy. I made a list of the pre 1940 wheat cents. There was also a little less than $30 worth of 40's and 50's wheat cents.

The 31s jumps out at me as a valuable one.

Yes, you do, lol. Because every year has varieties and I can't imagine the OP taking the time to find them all, so we must point out the biggies. It's unlikely but you did point out a couple that should never be overlooked.
